Replaces "Black Friday" as corporate America jump starts the holiday shopping season one day earlier than normal.
Mom: Now don't forget... Thanksgiving dinner at our house. Same time as usual.
Bud: Can't make it.
Mom: What? Why not?
Bud: The marketing gurus at corporate decided that eating turkey with family and friends is less important than adding another full day of retail sales. The mall is gonna be open on freaking Thanksgiving day. Can you believe it? They're rolling out this whole "Early Bird Thursday" deep discounting promotion to add one more full day of shopping before Christmas.
Mom: I suppose, in some way, it's just a different sort of "family value".
Bud: Gold bless America!

Get the Thrusty Thursday mug.An alternative to 'keeping up with the joneses', although hardly used in the common English lexicon. Other examples include--
A) In expression, used to describe surprise and happiness for the end of the week - Friday, a day in which school is typically over, or for those in work. It can be used also for Thursday itself, for people waiting for the week to be over.
B) A title for a popular webcomic of the same name, about two mousethieves in London with a knack for stealing. The title stems from the fact that the main character, Patrick, was known as the 'Thursday Thief', for his crimes coincidentally happening on that day. Hence, people are trying to 'keep up with Thursday.'
C) A term used to describe the end result of an orgasm during sexual intercourse; the success of a wonderful night in bed with your mate and/or lover. Commonly used in the United Kingdom, though included in the United States in some instances.
